About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X15-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X15-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty applications requiring exact short-travel end-position tuning. It features a robust 160mm bore generating 10053N of push force at 0.5MPa, paired with a 15mm nominal stroke. An integrated rear adjusting screw allows you to trim the forward travel back by up to 10mm, creating a highly precise 5-15mm usable stroke window without needing external stops.
This adjustable-stroke design is invaluable during machine commissioning or product changeovers, letting you dial in the exact end position on the fly. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. It uses a PT tapered port thread and a carbon steel rod, while the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock to hold the load without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X15-10 Is Used
Precision Short-Stroke Pressing
Delivers 10053N of force for heavy-duty pressing tasks, with the 10mm rear adjuster allowing operators to fine-tune the exact 5-15mm travel depth during tooling setup.
Machine Changeover Calibration
Ideal for production lines running varied product sizes, enabling quick adjustments to the end-stop position without swapping out the entire cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Heavy-Duty Clamping Stations
Provides reliable high-force clamping on large components, utilizing the adjustable stroke to accommodate different material thicknesses while maintaining a rigid ISO 15552 mounting interface.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X15-10 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SAIJ160X15-10 makes sense when your application demands massive thrust within a very tight, adjustable travel band. If you need slightly less force, stepping down to a 100mm bore yields 3927N at 0.5MPa, but this 160mm profile cylinder provides the necessary 10053N push force for high-load pressing or clamping. The integrated 10mm adjustment mechanism allows for fine-tuning the 5-15mm travel window during setup, which is far more efficient than machining custom spacers or swapping fixed-stroke SAI cylinders.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, maintaining position requires continuous air pressure; the rear stopper and air cushions only manage travel ends and deceleration rather than locking the load. For load-holding without live pressure, consider an external pilot-operated check valve or AirTAC SAIL and BSAI locking cylinders. To ensure proper ISO 15552 replacement compatibility, verify the 160mm bore, 15mm stroke, 10mm adjustment, PT port thread, and your preferred mounting style from the available Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options.

Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X15-10 FAQ
It features a rear adjusting screw that acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 15mm nominal stroke by up to 10mm. This creates a usable travel window of 5-15mm, allowing precise end-position tuning at commissioning without changing the cylinder.
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5MPa, the SAIJ160X15-10 generates a push force of 10053N and a pull force of 9425N. It can achieve a maximum push force of 18095N at 0.9MPa.
